52 Mantle PSA 3 for $8k?
 
What do you guys make of this? Sold listings on eBay. Scam? Legit sale? Talk about missing the boat if so

$4.30 shipping. Might want to pay the extra for insurance.

Saw that. And this was his only listing. I’m just trying to figure out what was going on. Was it a legit mantle that he posted at the incorrect price and pulled down? A fake PSA that really sold for $8,000? The whole thing just seems odd.

The cert number comes up as a PSA 3 Mantle on PSA so the holder is legit even if the card in it isn't.

Likely just stolen images from a previous sale or the registry

We call them "ebay loan scams." Seller's account was likely compromised, images stolen from internet. Buyer pays, thinking they got a steal. PayPal account gets drained, no card gets sent (or an empty envelope). Buyer requests refund and gets paid by eBay.
